fandomhighdorms | The Roof | Wednesday Morning

It almost felt like Henrietta. The sun's rays were streaking out through clouds and the day, while not scorching, was damp and muggy. Ronan had met a lot of mornings like this after nights of not sleeping. He'd often throw the window open in his room, letting in the suffocating breeze like it might help. It never had but at least it was familiar.

The cuts on his shoulder were healing nicely. Legs dangling of the roof, he found himself gingerly touching the scabby marks that were crossing over the dark lines of his tattoo. He winced slightly before pulling his hand away and bracing it against the roof's ledge.

This place was tiny. This place was smaller than Henrietta and that was saying something. Declan would hate it. Matthew would love it. Gansey would never get bored, Noah would just be his ghostly self and Adam...Adam would probably be glad to have a fresh start.

But, right now it was just him. No one to make sure he did the right thing so he was just going to sit there on the roof, contemplating a lot of things that were probably not smart to contemplate.

Maybe he'd jump. He probably wouldn't, don't worry. Not today, at least.

Why was there a fox on the roof? Because this was Fandom, that's why.

He padded across the roof and climbed easily onto the ledge.

Ronan slanted a glance at the fox, brow furrowed before he shook his head.

Whatever, this place was strange. Seeing a fox wasn't a big deal. He'd let it go.

The fox glanced back at him, and managed to look somehow smug before settling down to enjoy the few rays of sunshine that were happening.

Leave it to Ezra to convey smugness in all his forms.

Of course he did.

But, he was being quiet, at least, so Ronan wasn't going to bitch. He glanced over once more before he shut his eyes and breathed deep.

The air smelled so different here.

Even more so to a fox. Today, there seemed to be something extra, though, and Ezra ended up picking himself up so he could pad around some more and try and figure out what it was, his nose in the air.

Tilting his head. Maybe it was the preserve.

Ronan's sense of smell wasn't that good so, after hearing the fox moving around, he opened his eyes and watched him walk around.

Still kind of strange to see a fox on the roof but maybe it was someone's pet or something.

Hah, pet.

Ezra yipped in Ronan's general direction when he caught him looking. Then he resumed his padding, peering over the ledge.

"Shut up," Ronan said, rolling his eyes. "I'm not doing anything to you, Fluffy."

Hey, what a great way to get Ezra to come back closer to him. Fluffy? Who was he calling Fluffy?

Ezra made a growly sound, because he could.

Ronan rolled his eyes, shaking his head. "You're terrifying. Go away. I'm busy and you're a pet."

That just earned Ezra trying to put his two front paws on his thigh.

All the better for snarling at him.

"Get off," Ronan snapped, pushing the little fox off. "Go away. I don't want to babysit a freaking dog."

Ezra... tried to bite at his hand. Yep.

It was just a little nip!

Ronan managed to yank his hand back. Then, he glared.

"Do that again and you're going off the roof," he threatened.

Ezra sat back and tilted his head at Ronan.

It was pretty damn sassy for a fox.

"Go. Away," Ronan told him firmly. "Now. Go find someone else to bother."

He was bossy and no fun.

Ezra harrumphed as best as he could with his current throat, but got to his feet and hopped off the ledge and onto the roof again.

Ronan rolled his eyes and shook his head. "Go find your owner or something. Sure they miss you."

Too bad foxes could't roll their eyes in return.

Ezra settled for leisurely making his way across the roof before disappearing back inside, the same way he'd come in.
